Hi group.Well after months of reading articles,talking to camera stores,checking Boz's 
K 
bodys site a million times,and reading the pdml,I found and purchased a used SF-1 
today c/w 
a pentax 35-70 zoom/macro lense and a used vivitar 636 AF flash.It was a scary time a 
lunch 
today as this life long manual(sp500&k1000)guy took the plunge into the noisy world of 
AF.
The price was good,i hope,in the range of $400.00 Can for this as well as a 
filter,strap and a 
soft bag for my Sigma 100-300  AF lense bought last year.Took a test roll as soon as i 
got 
home and hope all goes well.It came with  sf-10 manual but looks like the cameras work 
just 
about the same.Played with all the buttons during the test roll,wrote most of it 
down,lets hope 
the memory is good to.
Not sure about the flash.Is the best way to go about flash work to set the sync speed 
of 1/100 
and a lenses aperature to shoot or set the 1/100 and leave it on A?This flassh is used 
with no 
manual.Any one familiar with the 636AF?Any reasuring comments or to find a 
manual.Checked the vivitar site but they do not list this unit.

All help appreciated
